Just back from giving a talk to 2nd year students on how to approach research, how to write a paper. Abhijit was coming after me (good thing he didn't go first, tough act to follow!) Here are my slides... www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/0pm2m...

Updated version of the paper with @mulysan.bsky.social on how firms & job mobility can be key for immigrants' labor market success. We study the migration of former Soviet Union Jews to Israel during the 1990s, following them up until 2019 using admin data shorturl.at/rwP26
